This is going through the blog universe like wildfire..and has even made the news.

Michael Richards, Kramer from Seinfeld had a meltdown at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood.

THE COUCH will not put the video up because it is disturbing. He used a disgusting derogatory word in his routine not once, not twice, but FIVE TIMES!

It appears that he was being heckled by a patron and just imploded.

We will hear in the next few days that he has entered a rehab clinic and is "getting help" for his addiction.

THE COUCH is sick and tired of these celebrities and people who are in the spotlight being able to make statements about anything, hurting millions of people and then being able to hide behind their publicists and agents.

We loved Seinfeld and really enjoyed the character of Kramer...but now, this uselss piece of demented DNA will never be a part of our lives again.

The best part of the tape is watching people get up and walk out while he is still on stage.

Mr. Invisible has already begun the PR game by appearing via satellite on Letterman tonight and issuing an apology and stating he is "not a racist."

He appears during a segment of the show in which Jerry Seinfeld appears as a guest.

Seinfeld explained that he had spoken to the human slug earlier in the day and asked him to come on and explain himself.

Like this apology really matters.

Look, comedians on stage get heckled all the time and the best comics know how to defuse the situation...what Mr. Useless did was revert to the lowest form of slime by attacking the person in the audience with his demented filth.

Don Rickles made a career out of insulting people but never had to revert to the repulsive behavior exhibited by this poor excuse for a human being.

Mel Gibson gets to insult an entire race of people and go into rehab and it is supposed to be all better.

Bad little boy, go sit in the corner and don't talk for a half hour and then mommy will make you cookies.

THE COUCH is terribly disappointed in David Letterman for allowing himself to be used by Mr. Nauseating today.

And in the end...this is the apology Mr. Sleazeball gives... "I lost my temper on stage, I was at the comedy club trying to do my act and I got heckled and I took it badly and went into a rage. For me to be at a comedy club and flip out and say this crap, you know, I am deeply, deeply sorry."

That's right bad boy go and sit in the corner...

NO...celebrities, caucasian americans, asian americans, african americans need to ban together and make it known that Mr. Repugnant is a pariah...

Evidently the owners of the Laugh Factory do not feel that way as they allowed Mr. Abhorrant to perform the next evening!

THE COUCH could easily post the video or the link here for you to see, but we are so disgusted by this incident, we will not.

Remember .. Nets For Malaria - UNFoundation.org/malaria - find the big SI's Nothing But Net logo ... Or call 202.887.9040. Every cent goes to buying nets to place over the beds of children in Africa to stomp out Malaria. PLEASE HELP.

Since I live near the Left Coast, I have not seen tonight's Letterman yet, but I know Dave is not above calling out these morons and seeing how they try to waffle through an apology. If you're saying he didn't, then I'm surprised. For all of Dave's doofyness, he still (it seems to me) hates when celebrities pull a "Gibson" and think that solves all.

Well hallelujah! I wonder.. did the ghost of Nicole and Ron visit and torment old Rupert?? The man has finally done a decent thing..

OJ.. take a hint and disappear.. *dials Bruno's cell..*

I have lost all respect for Michael Richards.. what does it say about this world of ours that celebrities and politicians always have a 'disease' excuse for acting like scum? And then people forgive and forget their crass and disgusting behaviour because of it...

Vinny, I jumped for joy last night when saw that they pulled that STUPID show from the networks. I can't believe he had the nerve to do something like this. Yes, we know he did it, but this was just him being able to come out and say I did it and know there is NOTHING that can be done to him. He knows he can't be tried for that horrible crime again. I guess he's hurting for money too....

I had the tv on Letterman last night, but turned it when that prejudice a$$hole came on there. I couldn't bear to see him.

What makes celeb think they can do this and just "I'm sorry" and everything be ok?

I don't agree with Michael Richards' outburst, but in situations like this I try to remember that old saying about "when you point the finger at someone there are 4 more pointing back at you." I think everyone in the world is guilty of calling other people not-so-nice names in the heat of anger. Whether it's a racial epithet, a sexist term, religion-based or just plain old mean profanity, 99.9% of people in this world are guilty of doing it. Just when celebrities do it, it's all over the news and rehashed 5 million times so it becomes more and more disgusting to people.

I was unable to watch the video of Michael Richards going on a verbal rampage at TMZ (which is probably just as well), but I read about some of the things he said, and, I must say, they are disgraceful! While he might claim to not be a racist, his actions say otherwise. It's a pity, really, 'cause I used to like Kramer on Seinfeld. I'm tempted to say that his career in showbiz is over, but it's difficult to be sure. I mean, this IS Hollywood after all!As for OJ Simpson...the less said about him the better. I'm just glad the publishers came to their senses!

Although this so called "show" was not on air round here, the video spilled over to Germany. The content?Sorry, I can´t handle it!I always thought - like busy91 mentioned - nothing neither surprises nor shocks me anymore. There I was mistaken...

That slime ball! No, I did not go watch the video, your words, Vince, were enough to get me in an uproar! I am sick to death of celebrities using their fame to hide behind, while hurting others! Oh and don't EVEN get me started on OJ! That piece of filth!

MERI: which is why i did not include the link or the video.. nuff siad indeed

BARB: LOL on Meg Ryan... I got it immediately...Yes.. there was a blog I saw that showed these updates from CNN on the TomKat wedding evry five minutes- sickOK as far as the not starting.. in the code you will see 'autostart=true' change that true to a zero character '0' and it will not start.. if you use the word 'false' it still starts on firefox= hope that helps

SANNI; It was mindblwing to me - at first I thought he was doing a routine - which would have been bad enough as a white man- then when i realized he was berated someone my stomach turned

TOPCHAMP: it is a word we shoudl never have to hear

BUD: Thanks I appreciate it I respect your opinion

MIMI: I did not comment on the book .. I had to coment on it not being published

SUEANN: Beautiful ring...wWell I am not sure I am happy that my words expressed the horrendous nature of what was said... but I am also glad you did not have to subject yourself to having to listen to it... nope not pushing that button to start you on that subject.. nope

It's hard to believe some people, isn't it? I'll never look at "Kramer" the same, I think he's ruined his career. And OJ...well...::rolleyes:: He'll get his when he gets to the pearly gates and gets denied entry.
